Thread: Projected Leafs Lineup with Expanded Roster
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PinkWhitney</b></div><div>Spezza and Thornton are both playmakers, you don't want them on the same line.

I dont mind Kerfoot on the 4th line, but seeing how you have Thornton, Spezza, Robertson, and Vesey and no extra players because of cap, I don't see how he doesn't get traded.

Robertson Thornton Simmonds
Vesey Spezza Boyd</div></div>

Ok, I see what you're saying and completely agree by perspective.. if Kerfoot is traded it actually gives us a few advantages both for cap space and a pretty good return -

However, in my opinion I would need a single roster player coming back 1 for 1 that is equal in talent (talking 7th forward and nothing under that) in return for him value for value.

I kinda want to see too if he can get 35-40 points out of a rejuvenated Vesey and replace Kapanens numbers.. is it worth replacing him with a very low points per game Boyd.. I think we are regressing here?

Player VS. Player, Kerfoot tips the scale

If you do end up trading him I would prefer to have Anderson in the lineup instead of Boyd in the event of a trade for prospects, picks and salary room to do something at the deadline. I think Joey would fit better in the bottom 6 and have Boyd center the second line with the Marlies.

It also opens the door to add a top 4 defencemen

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PinkWhitney</b></div><div>I don't like it, you don't put a kid like Robertson on the 4th line. Leafs should trade Kerfoot IMO.

Hyman Matthews Marner
Mikheyev Tavares Nylander
Robertson Thornton Simmonds
Vesey Spezza Boyd

Rielly Brodie
Muzzin Holl
Dermott Bogosian</div></div>

You don't put a kid like Robertson on the 4th line? Where do you put him?

1. Too good for Major junior
2. Too young for the Ahl
3. You have to keep him, he's an NHL Contract
4. He is not going to play in the top 6
5. He will play in the bottom 6
6. Bottom 5 of 6 - Kerfoot, Vesey, Thornton, Spezza and Simmonds.. this is not changing
7. He is not going to be put on the expanded roster.. he's better than Engvall, Barabanov, Boyd, Anderson, Malgin, even Korshkov
8. He will play in the bottom 6, that means 3rd or 4th line but it doesnt matter cause he will be playing in a combo made up of Kerfoot, Vesey, Thornton, Spezza and Simmonds
9. In this rare situation.. with so much depth.. Robertson plays on the 4th line..
10. can't see Kerfoot and Vesey Broken up
11. can't see Spezza and Thornton playing together lol

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LeafsFanForSomeReason</b></div><div>Welcome to Capfriendly! Not going to sugarcoat it as there is no point in doing so based on the previous comments: the trades aren't very good. But y'know what; the vast majority of first posts aren't. The more time you spend on here and the more interactions you have, the broader your knowledge of player values on here will become, as can be said for everyone who joins/joined this site. Good to have you.</div></div>

Thanks bro,

Trades meant for them to take them..

Marner, Nylander and Engvall replaced by Hall, Reinhart and Thornton

Subban, Dumba and Ristolainen replaces Dermott, Holl, Sandin

Do the trades still look bad..

Better contract control with Hall and Reinhart..

..and just say we do get NJ to take on the full 9 Million for 2 years (don't think they would cause it would be costing them 15 Million+ a year for Nylander over the next 2), who on the roster would you replace with the added 4.5 Million free'd up? Just picking your brain.

Cheers
